Greetings from Paris! Did you think Thursday Book Club was gone forever? Au contraire, mes freres! I haven’t been slacking; I’ve been working like a chien to bring you a good post. Yep, I’ve been working this hard. I previously mentioned the English Civil War of the 1600s. If you search online for English Civil…
YSL Getty Wedge
I love the “dripping paint” effect on this shoe. It’s available in brown at Barneys for $690. The black pair is listed on Bluefly for $469, but don’t get too excited: there were no sizes listed in the dropdown menu when I looked.
iGo With iHog
The iHog and I are hitting the road. I expect to post as usual, but I may not have time to give all your blogs the normal amount of comment love. I hope you can forgive me. Speaking of traveling, when my husband returned from a recent business trip he found golf balls that looked…
My Style? Contrarian.
A few fashion bloggers and quite a lot of commenters have taken exception to this post by the street-style photographer known as The Sartorialist. What happened was that the young lady in the photo said she was a fan of his site, but he didn’t find her style blogworthy. Photo by The Sartorialist Then he…

This thing sucks.” Thanks to McGone of International House of Blogcakes for generously sharing the…

No Such Thing as Bad Publicity? Let’s Test!
The people at Orna & Rinat Jewelry keep spamming my comment section. They just did it again although I had emailed them and warned them to stop, receiving this amusingly ESL answer from them on April 11: Sorry I stop to send you info about my site eran Eran, you promised that you would “stop…
My Fellow Americans….

Deja Vu All Over Again
While browsing eBay instead of working on my website like I should be doing, I came across this vintage dress. Source: Brown Bettie Vintage “You remind me of someone,” I said to the dress. What!? I can talk to dresses if I like. Jebus! Don’t judge. Anyway, sure enough, here is its sweater soulmate, made…
Mystery
Why do I have 100 hits from people searching for “Clarence Bradley and Geico”? Well, here’s where I mentioned that. On a completely unrelated note, aren’t these shoes divine? Barbara Bui shoes at Shopjake.com
